I started with Pokemon Blue back in the 6th grade (late 90s) but after Gen. 1 I stopped playing until about 2-2.5 years ago, when I picked up Pokemon Black.

Also, when I first got the Blue, I wanted to pick Charmander as my starter, but I thought I had to pick squirtle because that was the version's mascot. My buddy had Red and picked Charmander. When I saw him battling with his Charizard I was so so jealous.

even if we don't understand each other, that's not a reason to reject each other. There are two sides to any argument. Is there one point of view that has all the answers? Give it some thought.

^ This is the reason why I like arguing. If I come off as standoffish or overly angry in an argument, don't worry. I'm probably having the time of my life. Whether I agree with them or not, the pokemon fandom has a lot of different opinions, and I love how nobody is afraid to share them.

Pokémon Silver. I could never beat Bruno, and the cartrige just stopped working one day... and those times when I resetted because I didn't know how to get past Sudowoodo... and when I couldn't get through the Ice Path... fun times.

It's purely why I chose SoulSilver over HeartGold.

Shokotan: "And then, in Extremespeed Genesect: The Awakening of Mewtwo, we meet another Mewtwo!"
Yuyama: "Yes, I thought it'd be better if it was a different Mewtwo."

Good for you Yuyama. Too bad you've singlehandedly torpedoed any lingering respect I and anyone else had for you.
